Hi! :wave:

Interested in hanging out with freeCodeCamp’s staff, contributors and community moderators?

Dates and time: May 11, 2019 4:00 PM → 5:00:00 PM.
Location: Invite only online Google Hangout (limited attendees).

Hop on any time during the video/voice conference call. We will get caught up and hear about your week. We will share updates on contributions and freeCodeCamp’s upcoming goals.

You can ask anything to the freeCodeCamp Staff members, moderators or contributors. Share ideas and feedback or tell us about something fun that you have been working on.

Bring your :coffee: (or :beer:) and we will have some fun.

Sound good? RSVP to this event just below the topic title on this page.

RSVP

Join Our Contributors Chat room for queries and updates.

Note:

Due to time/bandwidth constraints and making the hangout productive we can send out invites only to a limited no of people. If you RSVP, we request you to make sure and join the call. This makes it so that interested people don’t miss out. :slight_smile:

We will still share offline updates on all our community channels.

Happy contributing!

Update - (May 9, 2019):

We will be sending out invites in your forum inbox via a private message, instead of an email like last time (as a commitment to safeguard your privacy).

You will be able to follow the link in the same message to join us anytime during the event slot.

Looking forward to see you.

Sounds fun, but the curse of the Antipodes makes this 2 am for me :slight_smile:

Ah. So sorry to hear that. Timezones are really hard. We could definitely look into planning two events in future, and hopefully cover most zones.

You can still drop your questions, suggestions and feedback here and we will make sure we discuss them during the call.

My apologies for not being able to make it, ended having to work until the early AM then slept through!

Was the hangout recorded or are their plans to record future hangouts?

Hi @cmccormack.

No worries.

We do not record the hangout because we always have open and candid conversations in these meetings. We are happy to answer any queries that you have though.

Definitely looking forward to catching up with you in the next one.
